However, I did go to the scrap yard, but the result was not satisfactory.
After searching for half an afternoon, the two returned almost empty-handed. Not only did they not find any self-study books on mathematics, physics and chemistry, they didn't even find anything useful.
But... this is just returning empty-handed on the surface.
In fact, Lu Wensheng dug out a dusty Yuan Datou coin from the secret compartment of a bed that was so broken that it couldn't be broken any more.
It was the first time she had seen this thing in real life. She blew it like she did in old TV dramas, put it to her ear, listened to the sound, and then threw it into space.
Hey! This thing seems to be quite valuable in the future, I took it~
"Shengsheng, let's go. We won't look for you anymore."
Shen Lingling, with her head and face covered in dust, raised her head from a pile of books and greeted her little sisters who were still wandering among the old furniture with a look of despair.
I have been looking through it for over an hour, but I haven't found anything useful. They basically have all the books here, and they have more of the ones that are not here~
Not to mention that there are many things that look good but are useless, and they will be broken even if you take them back.
She was hungry after searching for so long. Looking at the yellow cover of the book in front of her, she suddenly wanted to eat the baked pumpkin with salted egg yolk made by Shengsheng.
Lu Wensheng looked at his little sister who looked like she had lost all hope in life, crawled out from the pile of old furniture and asked:
"Why, are you hungry?"
Shen Lingling stared at the yellow book cover and nodded:
"Hmm, I want to eat baked pumpkin~"
Lu Wensheng naturally saw her action and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
Afraid that Shen Lingling would notice something unusual, he looked outside to cover up. He realized it was already late, so he said:
"Let's go, let's find a guest house to stay in first, and we'll figure out the rest after we're settled."
"good."
Lu Wensheng picked up some old newspapers from the corner and went out to weigh them. He had been here for half the afternoon, so he couldn't leave empty-handed!
After collecting the money, the old man who was weighing the paper said confidently: "You are not here to buy old newspapers, are you?"
Don't ask him how he is so sure. Just think about it, who would buy old newspapers according to the afternoon's batch? You don't have to select the content one by one.
Lu Wensheng didn't intend to hide it, and nodded and replied:
"Yes, we wanted to buy a series of self-study books on mathematics, physics and chemistry. We searched for half an afternoon but couldn't find any. We couldn't leave empty-handed, so we just picked up some newspapers and pasted them on the walls at home!"
The old man nodded happily, and after thinking for a while, he said:
"Okay, there aren't many comrades like you who love to study nowadays. Come with me."
As he said this, he walked towards the small room where he was staying.
Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling looked at each other and immediately followed. They didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise. If they had known earlier, they would have asked before looking for things.
After I followed the old man into the house, I saw him rummaging under the old wooden bed and pulling out a small wooden box. When he opened the box, he found a set of neatly arranged self-study books on mathematics, physics and chemistry.
"This was brought to me by a high school teacher two years ago. I thought it looked quite new so I put it away separately, thinking that it might be useful in the future.
I've been here for so many years, and I've never seen anyone spend half an afternoon looking for it. If you two young comrades need it, take it away. It's free."
Seeing how well it was preserved, Lu Wensheng felt there was a story behind it, but since the other person didn't tell her, she had no intention of finding out.
After winking at Shen Lingling next to him, he spoke directly:
"How can we take away someone's beloved things? We are very happy that you can give it to us. It is absolutely not okay to take it away for free. If you really don't want the money, then we can exchange it for something else."
Shen Lingling immediately understood what her sister meant when she saw her eyes. She immediately took out a bag of peach cakes from her backpack and handed them over, echoing:
"That's right, sir. We can't just take your things for free. We just bought these peach cakes this afternoon. They are a token of our appreciation. You can't refuse them."
Lu Wensheng also said: "Yes, yes, if you don't accept it, we will be embarrassed to take the book away."
The old man shook his head helplessly. It was fate that he met these two young comrades, so he said, "Okay, then I will accept it shamelessly."
After thinking for a while, he dragged out another box from under the wooden bed, and mysteriously took out two books and put them inside:
"I'll give you two more books that the old man treasures. You must keep them well and don't let outsiders see them!"
"good!"
Lu Wensheng smiled and nodded, then casually put the bookcase and the books into the backpack:
"Then we'll leave, sir. If you have anything good, please keep it for us. We'll come back later."
"Okay, okay, be safe."
The old man stood at the door of the scrap yard and watched the two men and the cow leave, secretly admiring their noble character in his heart.
——————————————
"Shengsheng, take out those two books and see what they are."
Shen Lingling didn't speak until they had walked a long way away. She had long wanted to know what the book was, but because they were on someone else's land, she was too embarrassed to ask, and had been holding it in until now.
Lu Wensheng was also a little curious, so he immediately took out the small wooden box, took out the two books from the gap, peeled off the cover and took a look...
Wow, it’s actually a banned book!
After seeing the title of the book clearly, Shen Lingling immediately put the book in her arms, looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one around.
Oh my god, that old man is so bold that he even dares to hide banned books!
This is too dangerous...
Sure enough, your uncle will always be your uncle!
Seeing her sneaky look, Lu Wensheng wanted to laugh: "Sister, is there a possibility that we have space?"
Shen Lingling just remembered this, stuck out her tongue and quickly transferred the book in her arms into the space, combed her hair and calmed down before she spoke seriously:
"I'm hungry, where shall we eat?"
The speed of changing faces is simply amazing.
Lu Wensheng: She is indeed the girl I like!
"Stay here first."
As they were talking, they arrived at the guesthouse. Lu Wensheng took out the letter of introduction and booked a room smoothly.
After locking the door, under Shen Lingling's shocked gaze, he took out six neatly arranged lunch boxes from the space, and even the thermos and cups at home...
"this……"
Then I watched her take out the small mirror, small comb, toothpaste, toothbrush, and soap box one by one.
She even suspected that Shengsheng had packed all of their belongings into the space and brought them here.
Shen Lingling was dumbfounded when she saw the steaming dishes on the table. Wasn't that the food they usually cooked? It was even hot.
The most important thing is the baked pumpkin with salted egg yolk that she just said she wanted to eat...
Under her shocked gaze, Lu Wensheng took out another basin, added water of suitable temperature, looked at Shen Lingling who was stunned on the spot, and said:
"What are you standing there for? Come and wash your hands. We'll have dinner later."
